As Calgarians, we appreciate the natural beauty that the world (our part of the world especially) has to offer. We therefore take care to make ecologically responsible decisions in everything we do. When it comes to flooring, linoleum offers a greener alternative. Linoleum is made from all natural ingredients including linseed oil, wood powder, and limestone, while the backing is comprised of jute, a natural grass. In fact, the name came from the words linum and oleum, meaning flax and oil. This means it is 100% biodegradable and releases no toxins before or after decomposition. Linoleum also does not absorb dust and allergens, making it hypoallergenic and keeping the air in your home as clean as the air outside of it.
